merkle v0.2.2 Merkle

Merkle module provides a macro implementing Merkle Trees in Elixir.

Summary

Types

digest()

The hexadecimal representation of a cryptographic hash

hash()

A cryptographic hash

Functions

hexDecode(o)

Decodes hexadecimal string (digest) into binary string (hash)

hexEncode(o)

Encodes binary string (hash) into hexadecimal string (digest)

Macros

__using__(params)

This macro implements methods for handling Merkle Trees

Types

digest()

digest :: String.t

The hexadecimal representation of a cryptographic hash.

hash()

hash :: String.t

A cryptographic hash.

Functions

hexDecode(o)

hexDecode(digest) :: hash

hexDecode([digest]) :: [hash]

Decodes hexadecimal string (digest) into binary string (hash).

Examples

iex> Merkle.hexDecode("FABADA")
<<255, 186, 218>>

hexEncode(o)

hexEncode(hash) :: digest

hexEncode([hash]) :: [digest]

Encodes binary string (hash) into hexadecimal string (digest).

Examples

iex> Merkle.hexEncode(<<255, 186, 218>>)
"FABADA"

Macros

__using__(params)

__using__(term, {Function.t, Integer.t}) :: Module.t

__using__(term, Function.t) :: Module.t

This macro implements methods for handling Merkle Trees.

Examples

iex> defmodule Tree do
...>   use Merkle, &Merkle.Mixers.Bin.sha256/2
...> end
{:module, Tree, <<...>>, {:module, Tree.Helpers, <<...>>, {:random, 1}}}
